Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022153219A1] Apparatuses, systems, and methods for receiving authorization for an unmanned aerial vehicle (or uncrewed aerial vehicle) (UAV) are disclosed. One method (700) includes receiving (705) a first request from an Access and Mobility Management Function (143) in which the first request includes an indication to establish user plane resources for Unmanned Aerial System ("UAS") services for a UAV device (106). The method further includes retrieving (710) subscription information from a Unified Data Management (149) node, the subscription information indicating that UAV authorization is required by a UAS Service Subscriber (157) and/or UAS Traffic Management (157) server, and sending (715) a second request to a UAS network function (147) to initiate the UAV authorization.
